  • Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Unavailable for road trip

    Kastelic (upper body) will miss the remaining four games of Boston's road trip, according to Jim McBride of the Boston Globe on Saturday.

    Kastelic returned to Boston to undergo evaluations. He has compiled five goals, 14 points, 67 shots on net, 218 hits and 106 PIM in 61 appearances this season. Due to Kastelic's absence, Fabian Lysell will presumably play against the Sharks on Saturday.

  • Kraken's Chandler Stephenson: Out Saturday

    Stephenson (undisclosed) will not play Saturday against the Oilers, Alison Lukan of the Kraken Hockey Network reports.

    Coach Dan Bylsma didn't give many details on Stephenson's injury -- the veteran winger left Wednesday's 4-0 loss to Minnesota after the second period. Stephenson has 11 goals and 48 points in 69 games this season. His availability for Tuesday's home game against the Flames is unclear.

  • Marco Rossi C | VAN

    Wild's Marco Rossi: Ready to rock

    Rossi (lower body) will play against Buffalo on Saturday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

    Rossi won't miss any additional action after leaving Wednesday's 4-0 win over Seattle early. He has amassed 21 goals, 53 points and 115 shots on net in 69 appearances this season.

  • Jiri Kulich C | BUF

    Sabres' Jiri Kulich: Still sidelined

    Kulich (concussion) will not play Saturday against the Wild, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

    It'll be the third game Kulich has missed since suffering a concussion last weekend. The 20-year-old center has 12 goals and 19 points this season.

  • Josh Norris C | BUF

    Sabres' Josh Norris: Not playing Saturday

    Norris (undisclosed) won't be an option for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

    Norris will miss his fourth straight game, and it's unlikely he will be ready for Sunday's contest against Winnipeg because he hasn't been practicing. He has produced 21 goals and 35 points in 56 appearances this season between Buffalo and Ottawa.

  • Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Should play Saturday

    Wennberg (lower body) is expected to play against Boston on Saturday, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

    Wennberg won't miss any playing time after skipping Friday's practice. He has produced eight goals, 31 points, 66 shots on net and 58 blocked shots across 64 appearances this season. According to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News, Noah Gregor and Klim Kostin will be healthy scratches versus the Bruins.

  • Matt Rempe C | NYR

    Rangers' Matt Rempe: Good to go Saturday

    Rempe (illness) will return to the lineup Saturday against Vancouver, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

    Rempe will return to action after missing Thursday's 4-3 loss to Toronto. The 22-year-old winger has two goals, five points, 99 hits and 54 PIM through 34 games in a fourth-line role this season.

  • Sean Kuraly C | BOS

    Blue Jackets' Sean Kuraly: Logs assist in loss

    Kuraly notched an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.

    Kuraly has been limited to two helpers and a minus-3 rating over 10 outings in March. The 32-year-old is still holding steady in a fourth-line role, so his chances to contribute on offense will be minimal. He's posted 15 points, 70 shots on net, 141 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating across 69 appearances this season, making it unlikely he'll match his 18-point total from 62 games a year ago.

  • Blue Jackets' Mathieu Olivier: Helper, fight in loss

    Olivier logged an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and five PIM in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.

    Olivier fought Bokondji Imama in the first period before setting up a Justin Danforth tally in the middle frame. It's been a good stretch for Olivier lately, who has six goals, three assists, 47 hits, 28 shots on net and 26 PIM over 12 contests dating back to Feb. 25. Overall, the 28-year-old is enjoying a career year with 27 points, 125 PIM, 99 shots on net, 260 hits, 69 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 69 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Boone Jenner C | CLB

    Blue Jackets' Boone Jenner: Gets first goal of season

    Jenner scored a goal on six shots and added three hits in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.

    The goal was Jenner's first of the campaign, coming nearly a month after his season debut. The 31-year-old hasn't had any trouble staying productive, though his tally Friday snapped a four-game point drought, his worst of the season. He's at 10 points, 32 shots on net, 26 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 13 appearances in 2024-25.
